Either that, but I prefer to let the computer do the boring stuff. A simple Perl
script (attached) sorts all objects (to make diffs smaller) and puts the listed
ones at the top. It is called from a Makefile that does also modify the material
entries etc.

I call it like this for the bo105:

  cat ${AC}|ac3d-sort shadow_fuselage shadow_rotor strobe_halo_T strobe_halo_B \
                      beacon_halo_T beacon_halo_Bf beacon_halo_B nav_halo_L \
                      nav_halo_R tailrotor > ${AC}.tmp && mv ${AC}.tmp ${AC}

The sctips doesn't work for *.ac files with object groups, though. (Which isn't a
problem, as Blender doesn't export groups, anyway.)
